Laser Hair Removal Freeville

Like with any other cosmetic procedure, in its early stages, Laser Hair Removal in Freeville was very limited. Only those individuals with very light skin tones and very dark hair were able to be effectively treated. However, due to the advancement in laser technology, lasers have since been developed that can treat patients with all skin tones; sometimes even tanned skin. This means that men and women with darker skin tones can now undergo safe, effective laser treatments that can remove unwanted hair without damaging the skin. The safety and efficacy of the laser treatments has increased as newer lasers have been produced.

Because of continual advancements in laser technology, men and women with all different skin tones can be treated safely and effectively; however, there is still a limit to who it can effectively treat. The laser used during the procedure is attracted to the melanin or pigment in each hair follicle. Those individuals with brown or black hair will see excellent hair removal results because darker hair colors contain a significant amount of pigment. On the other hand, those individuals with white, gray, red or blonde hair will not see these same results because lighter hair colors contain less (or no) pigment; therefore they are harder for the laser to ‘see’ and treat. If the laser cannot properly target the hair, it won’t be able to treat it—so the hair follicles won’t be destroyed.

This revolutionary hair removal procedure is a great way to remove pesky unwanted hair, but it doesn’t work for everyone. No matter what any clinic might claim, if you have lighter hair colors, you will not see effective Laser Hair Removal results. If you are unsure as to whether or not Laser Hair Removal in Freeville will work for you, visit a clinic for a laser consultation. Certified laser technicians will help you to determine whether or not you are a candidate for the treatment. Once you determine that you are, you can then get started on the road to freedom from unwanted hair.
